I’ve been a long-time Flickr user and fan ever since get­ting into Pho­tog­ra­phy. It’s been more than 5-years since I’ve joined, and to this day, I still con­sid­er it (hands down) the best pho­to shar­ing site out there. It keeps it sim­ple and just makes it easy for peo­ple to do what they want to do, share their pho­tos with friends and fam­i­ly.

With the Hol­i­days upon us, we are see­ing loved ones that we don’t often see as dis­tance is usu­al­ly a fac­tor. But one thing we do to recall and make those mem­o­ries last are take pho­tos and/or videos. I had my cam­era and just snapped away dur­ing our recent fam­i­ly gath­er­ing. I then uploaded the set/album to Flickr to share it.

One thing that is lim­it­ing is that not all of my relatives/friends/family are on Flickr. Even then, you are only lim­it­ed to down­load on a per pho­to basis (at the moment?). As to find a solu­tion to have my aunt down­load the entire set/album, as she want­ed to get them print­ed at Cost­co, I dug around and for­tu­nate­ly found Flick and Share.

Last week i received a jel­ly in the post sup­pos­ed­ly from Dan Wieden. Sealed inside the jel­ly was a plas­tic box with a mem­o­ry stick in it. On load­ing, it played a film of Dan ask­ing me to hire the per­son who real­ly sent the jel­ly.

Talk about effort! The appli­cant had even done his home­work on my jel­ly wob­bling activ­i­ties. His port­fo­lio was also attached. If i’m hon­est the film and appli­ca­tion caught my atten­tion more than the work did, but still worth a cup­pa for all that effort.
